I usually go A-Z…

Or, I just fall back onto my favourite author - Terry Pratchett!

Hmm, I’m afraid I don’t have any Terry Pratchett books to fall back onto.  I’ve narrowed down my list to a newfound “lost” novel by Heinlein, a history of the Crimean War, Jane Austen, or a book on the Permian extinction.  Hmmm.

Hmmm…Nothing in that lot which I would read!

Well, it would cost a fair amount of postage for me to send them to you, anyway.

Have you been having much thrilling work there at the office?

Not really…but what would you expect working for a tax accountant?  Honestly, the cupboard of Friday was a big highlight of my work.

You could break some furniture, so that you’ll get to bring in some more new stuff.

We don’t really need any new furniture.  We recently got a load of new stuff.

Yes, but then you’d at least get the thrill of bringing in even newer stuff!

Maybe…

Or you can always set fire to the wastebasket.
